Another Liverpool academy graduate seems set to seal a permanent move away from the Reds this summer alongside Bobby Clark.<\/p>\n
Liverpool will be moving fast to cash in on another academy graduate this summer after reportedly agreeing a deal to sell Harvey Blair to Portsmouth. After frequently featuring as a substitute during pre-season, the winger did not make the matchday squad away at Ipswich Town on the opening weekend of the Premier League\u00a0season.<\/p>\n
Blair, 20, also did not play in the under-21’s first two games of their new season. He is now over a year removed from sustaining a meniscus tear that scuppered a potential loan move last summer. The former Red Devils youth player, who joined them at the under-12s level, also had endured an injury-affected 2022\/23 season. Now, a Championship campaign reportedly beckons for the Huddersfield-born player.<\/p>\n
The Reds have agreed to a \u00a3300,000 deal with Pompey, according to David Lynch on his Substack. The update comes three days after Lynch claimed the club were open to selling Blair for an acceptable offer, which the South Coast club appears to have made.<\/p>\n

The Reds are also being urged to cash in on top striker Mohamed Salah\u00a0while they still can by former Everton\u00a0chief executive Keith Wyness.<\/p>\n
“I still think Mohamed Salah will go,” Wyness told Football Insider\u2019s Track podcast.<\/p>\n
“I could be completely wrong, but when I\u2019ve been in Saudi recently \u2013 I\u2019ve seen the clamour for him to come. Ronaldo has probably got another season after this, so they\u2019ll want Salah in as the face of the league.<\/p>\n
“I could be wrong, and it may not be possible, but I think Liverpool would be better off cashing in on him with one year left. It may have been kept quiet up to now. That would be a headline deal, and it makes sense.<\/p>\n
“Saudi Arabia have got their TV rights coming up soon, and if Salah came, the Egyptian rights would go through the roof. There are a lot of reasons it makes sense.<\/p>\n
“But then again, he scored on Saturday, and it makes you think that maybe one more season will be worth it for Liverpool. Still, my business head is saying to get it done right now. Whether the football side will agree, it\u2019s a different thing.”<\/p>\n
